Preparing for Filming

Actors: I am currently attending school online, so it would be kind of hard for me to meet up with my friends. I did ask someone but most people are busy, and also it's kind of hard with the pandemic. As a result, I will be the main character and my parents are going to help me with filming since I am an only child.

Costumes: There isn't much need for different or extravagant costumes, thus the actors will just wear normal clothes. 

Props: I will only be using a watch as a prop because it will be the main object. I'll also use some jewelry for the last scene. 

Locations: I have decided to film in my neighborhood and my house for most of the scenes. I will also be filming in a busy location, probably in downtown for the establishing scene.

Dates and times: Sine I am mostly working by myself, I will be filming in the afternoon and during the weekend. Also, because my parents are going to help me, I will be filming once they return from work Monday-Thursday and Saturday. 

Scripts: I will not have a script because there won't be any talking. It will be a film, but the audience will be able to understand the story line through images. Also, there will be a song playing throughout the film opening in order to fill in the silence. 

Film equipment: I don't have much film equipment, so I will only be using my phone to film the project.

Editing week 1

I started the video by writing the opening credits, consisting of the film production, producer, director, and actor. I used the informal Roman font because it was simple and a little fancy but still legible. In the first couple of scenery shots, I used the posturize video effect which makes the shots clearer and makes the different colors and shade of greens stand out more. I used a cross dissolve transition so that the shots can transition smoothly, and I also used the cross zoom transition between two clips in the beginning. Every thing so far is kept with the original sound but I plan to add a song playing throughout the video at the end. At first I started the editing process using video editor but I faced a lot of difficulty since the features were limited and it did not have any transit

Editing week 2

                                       I decided to put the title of the video at the end because it was only the opening and I used the font Ravie which is fancy, bold, and it looks really pleasant. I also use the font Poor Richard for context clues during the video; it looks good and it is legible.  I slowed down certain shots that were a little shorts, especially I where I had writing over it in order to give the viewers time to read it, and I sped up other shots that I filmed in slow motion but ended up being too long. Towards the end, I use the wipe transitions in between the shots to give it a little sequence and a cool effect. I kept the beginning, where the credits are displayed with the original audio. I decided to put the music "Truth Untold" and let it play throughout the video because it starts out calm then get more drastic as the music progress, which I think fits the video really well. I also like the song because it is a powerful, dramatic, and upbeat classica
